lowing prayer: almighty God, in the
midst Of this gay and festive season we
ere startled by the sudden death OF

lulion for the payment Of months sala-
~ to the House employees who were on
the rolls December 9th but who have
htico htSh Nlo-uaIBcu OF VIII may 10
discharged prior to January 1st
THIS is similar in substance to the joint
resolution passed some days since, ex-
cept that under the joint resolution pay
ment must be made from the Treasury,
while under the pending resolution pay
ment is made from tho contingent fund
OF the House.
in speaking for the resolution Mr..
Herbert, Of Alabama, remarked upon
! the action of certain senators in criticiz-
ing the House for passing the joint reso-
luton, an action which lie thought was
uncalied for, in view of the fact that the
senators voted themselves each q clerk
and insisted upon paying their employees
% per cent. more than was received by
| the employees OF the House.
Mr.. Bland moved TO refer the resolu-
/ ton 20 the Committee on Accounts.

CASHIER HATCH MISSING.
HIS Loss of $1,000 Bill Exposed a
Robbery OF $1,000.

A New York special says: Percy n.
Hatch was handsome young fellow OF
twenty-one when he entered the service
of the Baltimore and Ohio Express Com
pany eight years ago, and IN 1874 his
ability and the uee of Wall street lntiu-
ence got him the position OF cashier to
the company. His salary was raised to
s., 0O0a year, and on the strength OF it
he married u pretty young lady worth
$4,000. A few months ago Mr.. and
Mrs. Hatch quarrelled and there was talk
of a suit fordivorce on the part fthe lady.
Three weeks ago he was in gambling
house drinking wine with "Red Leary,
conGdence-man named O'Brien, and a
number of women. He had in his
pocket a $1,000 bill belonging to the
express company, and when the wine
had got into his mead he fooishly took it
out and allowed it TO be handled in turn
by several members OF the motley COM
pany. The bill never got back into
Hatch's possession, and in an agony OF
grief he went first to the Thirtieth-street
police-station and then to police head
quarters TO report his loss. The women
were searched, but the bill could not be
found. O'Brien was arrested, but it
could not be proved that he stole the
money.
Hatch showed mp at the Office the
next day as usual, and as he had given
the police the name OF p. n. Houston
when he reported the loss OF the 81 900,
his superiors did not know that any
thing was wrong.
After failing 10 borrow money with
which TO make good the loss Hatch re-
Gently disappeared, and when the ex-
press company investigated il was found
that more than $1,000 was missing No
attempt had been made TO tamper with
the books, but thai amount in cold cash
had been carried bodily away. The mat
ter was put in the bands of Inspector
Byrnes, but mp to the present time lie
has not been able 10 lay hands on the
young defaulter. Hatch is believed to
be in Canada.
AT the Office Of the company MANAGER
Sedgwick aud Agent Hutton said Che
Baltimore aud Ohio Express Company
was the chief loser 10y Sir. Hatch's de-
faications. They occurred before the
United States Express Company took
charge Of the business.

~ feet and fatally injured. Immediately
alter the accident the Baltimore and
Ohio train backed up and had barely
stopped when the cab was boarded by
an infuriated crowd OF persons who had
narrowly escaped death. The engineerwss
roughly seized, and cries Of Lynch
him" akill him were shouted from hun.
dreds OF throats. Just in time to prevent
the crowd from executing its threats two
Central detail officers arrived and rescued
the covering man from the throng, oil
avengers. The engineer was quickly
spirited away and his name could not be
learned. There seems to be no excuse
for the accident. The Baltimore and
Ohio train was going at full speed, when
it should have been at a stand. There
was no sound of bell or whistle to warn
the crowd Of approaching danger.

and Adams determined to have revenge.
Meeting Templeton yesterday talking to
friends, he drew pistol, and, without
saying a word, shot him between the
eyes, killing him instantly. The muir
